Trump Tariff

During State of the Union address, Trump described a recent Supreme Court ruling on tariffs as "unfortunate", but maintained that his tariff regime was saving and protecting the country

In a 6-3 decision last week, the justices declared President Donald Trump's use of an economic emergency powers law illegal

The Supreme Court's ruling against US President Donald Trump's tariffs has countries like China and South Korea watching for Washington's next steps, while financial markets took the news in stride. The decision announced Friday could potentially disrupt arrangements worked out in trade negotiations since Trump announced sweeping tariffs on dozens of countries in April 2025. China's Commerce Ministry said it was conducting a "comprehensive assessment of" the ruling against the tariffs Trump imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA. "China urges the United States to lift the unilateral tariffs imposed on trading partners," an unnamed ministry spokesman said in a statement. The statement reiterated Beijing's stance that there are no winners in a trade war and that the measures Trump had announced "not only violate international economic and trade rules but also contravene domestic laws of the United States, and are not in the interests of any party," th

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Monday said it is too early to comment on the tariff changes announced by the United States and the commerce ministry is reviewing the situation. On Friday, the US Supreme Court gave a verdict against the sweeping import tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on trade partners. Following that, President Donald Trump imposed a 10 per cent tariff on all countries, including India, from February 24 for 150 days. Later on Saturday, Trump announced raising these tariffs to 15 per cent. Asked about the impact of tariff changes on the Indian economy, Sitharaman said it is a "bit too soon" to comment. "But on the trade particularly, aside from the Indian economy in general, the commerce ministry is reviewing the situation. The delegation will have to take a call on when they are going to go for further negotiations. So it's a bit too early for me (to comment)," Sitharaman said. On Sunday, India and the US decided to reschedule the proposed meetin

A senior US lawmaker has said that President Donald Trump is "grasping for excuses" to "slap outrageous tariffs" on India for purchasing Russian oil, urging him to reverse this policy immediately. "President Trump is grasping for excuses to slap outrageous tariffs on #India," Congressman Brad Sherman said in a social media post on Wednesday. Sherman, a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee as well as of the House Financial Services Committee, said in the post that Trump claims tariffs on India are about importing Russian oil. "Yet Hungary imports 90% of its crude from Russia with no tariffs. And China, Russia's biggest oil buyer, hasn't been hit with sanctions tied to purchasing Russian oil, though it has been hit for other reasons. "India gets just 21% of its crude from Russia, but our ally is being singled out. The President should reverse this policy immediately," Sherman said. Earlier this month, the US and India announced that they reached a framework for an ..

The House has voted to slap back President Donald Trump's tariffs on Canada, a rare if largely symbolic rebuke of the White House agenda as Republicans joined Democrats over the objections of GOP leadership. Wednesday's tally, 219-211, was among the first times the House, controlled by Republicans, has confronted the president over a signature policy. The resolution seeks to end the national emergency Trump declared to impose the tariffs, though actually undoing the policy would require support from Trump himself, which is highly unlikely. The resolution next goes to the Senate. Trump believes in the power of tariffs to force US trade partners to the negotiating table. But lawmakers are facing unrest back home from businesses caught in the trade wars and constituents navigating pocketbook issues and high prices. "Today's vote is simple, very simple: Will you vote to lower the cost of living for the American family or will you keep prices high out of loyalty to one person -- Donald J

Pidilite Industries anticipates a quick recovery in its US exports, which slowed in Q3 FY'26, following the India-US tariff revision, said its Managing Director Sudhanshu Vats on Wednesday. The company expects to continue its 'double-digit underlying volume growth' in the fourth quarter, and in the coming fiscal year, FY'27, he said in a post result briefing. Pidilite Industries on Tuesday declared its earnings for the December quarter, in which it reported a 12 per cent rise in consolidated net profit at Rs 623.84 crore on a year-to-year basis. Its revenue from operations stood at Rs 3,709.91 crore, up 10.12 per cent. During the quarter, Pidilite's industrial products revenue under its Business to Business (B2B) was impacted by lower exports. Its EBIT also declined in Q3 by 77 bps due to slower exports. When asked about the impact of the India-US deal, Vats said: "Our export component, fortunately for us, is small, but we do export to the US. That has slowed down quite a lot." "A

Exporters are keeping their fingers crossed on the impact of recent announcement made by US President Donald Trump that Washington will impose additional 25 per cent duty on countries trading with Iran. The exact impact of the additional tariff will be only known after a notification is issued by the Trump administration, said exporters. Indian exporters are already reeling under the impact of the steep 50 per cent tariffs imposed by the US. Trump has announced that any country doing business with Iran will have to pay a 25 per cent tariff on its trade with Washington, a move that could impact Tehran's major trading partners such as India, China and the UAE. Exporters' body FIEO on Tuesday said domestic firms are complying with all sanctions related to trade with Iran, but a clear clarification on Trump's announcement that countries trading with Iran may face a 25 per cent tariff would help asses the impact of the warning. The announcement by Trump could impact India-Iran trade ..
